TRUMP BUDGET CHIEF: WE WILL GET MEXICO TO PAY FOR WALL

Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney stressed that the Trump administration was committed to the president’s signature campaign promise of getting Mexico to pay for the proposed wall along the Mexican border.

“We’re already working on ways to get Mexico to pay for it…that’s not my concern,” Mulvaney told Newsmax. “I’m trying to get this thing built.”

Mulvaney added that the Trump administration will use several hundred million dollars of a $1.5 billion border security spending increase to begin work on the wall.
